The delay has inhibited us from laying out the strengths of our position and from answering misleading or false statements by those who oppose SALT. One result is that it's given an impetus to the anti-SALT movement that's going to take us a while to push back. It would have been a lot easier in some ways if we'd been able to lay it all out as we went along...
...held for 20 years. His North Devon constituency, however, turned him out with a humiliating 8,500-vote majority for a relatively unknown Tory candidate.

...their rugged style of hockey, and the mild-mannered Rangers initially feared that they would be forced into the Flyers' fighting style. But Shero decided they were better skaters than his former players. He encouraged them to use their skills to ride opponents off the puck. The result: a distinctive new Ranger style that blends a swarming defense with tightly organized rushes up ice. Against the Islanders, the Shero system worked well enough to stop the team with the league's best regular season record, and all without benefit of a single mugging.
